I am giving my 30 days notice on my rental. The house is very close to being finished. All the flooring is picked out, the walls have all been painted and cabinets are installed. The counters will come in the next week or so. Add the first cement patio and it is starting to look like a inhabitable house. It really is quite beautiful. I got a little detached from it while I was traveling but after seeing it am getting a little less detached ;-)
Terry and Jeanette have been absolutely relentless in getting this done on time and within budget which as a client could not be more happy about. I honestly could not imagine this process with anyone else. It is grueling and constant; yet, I have had to deal with little of it. I realize this is not the norm but am grateful it is my experience.
Some things still left to do include:
Paint the stucco
Landscape the outside
Pour the driveway and remaining patios
Install fixtures
Lay carpet and tile
Build master shower
Install counter tops
I am sure I have oversimplified and left several things out, but it is enough to get an idea of what is left. I will continue to take pictures of the progress.
So, over the next month, I will begin packing and getting rid of the few things I have accumulated that I have no need for in the new house. I have done a pretty good job of not cluttering my life this time around and have even found that I can live with less than I thought. I am a firm believer of less is more these days ;-)
I have included a couple of sunset pictures...it was amazing, the light was perfect and this is my new view.
